From f43c7cd9e5a92d784af5e21ba22083cdb70c0e51 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sergei Trofimovich Date: Sat, 16 May 2020 00:11:54 +0100 Subject: sys-libs/glibc: avoid GPREL overflow on ia64, bug #723268 -fno-common had unintended side-effect to optimise more accesses to global variables as module-local via GPREL22 relocations. Unfortunately glibc is large enough to overflow GPREL22 offset. Let's add a -fcommon workaround back to pessimize code slightly that refers module-local globals. We'll need an equivalen of -fPIC to do it consistently.
